Despite being a self-recorded album, the sound quality was perceived as very professional, for an unsigned and unsupported band.[4] It has been praised for its use of blast beats and the distinction of its keyboard.[5] All the artwork is credited to Tony Koehl.
All three of the tracks from their previous EP, October, "A Gradual Awakening", "World of Vengeance" and "Isengard Unleashed", had been rerecorded for this album.
There is an apparent hidden track at the end of the album where vocalist, John Strachan, is doing tracking for the word "Winter". Strachan stated that it was a joke that Joyce thought of in order to parody The Lord of the Rings, and metal in general. The word "Winter" is not found on any song on the album.
